Vocational language courses with target level B2 (DeuFöV, in accordance with Section 45a of the Residence Act)

Our vocational language courses are aimed at people with a migrant background who want to improve their German language skills for everyday working life.
These courses build on integration courses and offer the opportunity to bring language skills up to the level required for the world of work.

Target group: The course is aimed at people with a good knowledge of German who would like to expand their language skills in relation to the professional world. Participation is open to all job seekers, people in the recognition process or those already working who have a migrant background.
The prerequisite is a B1 level, which must be proven by a certificate (not older than 6 months) or a placement test.

Course content: The course covers work-related topics such as communication in the workplace, email correspondence, understanding operating instructions and professional communication with colleagues and superiors. The course ends with the B2 exam.
 
The certificate can help you in your future career, for example for the recognition of foreign qualifications.

Participation requirements:

  • You are registered as a job seeker and/or you receive benefits under SGB II (citizen's income) or SGB III (unemployment benefit)
  • You are looking for a training position, are currently in training or are going through the recognition process.
  • You have a migrant background and need further language training.
  • You are an immigrant with prospects of remaining in the country, an EU citizen or a German citizen with a migrant background who has already completed an integration course.

Costs:

Participation is free of charge for eligible persons and job seekers. Talk to your agent at the employment agency or job centre for more information.
If you are already in work, you can contact your employer, who will receive further details from the BAMF.
If you earn above a certain amount, you will have to pay for part of the language course yourself.
